Ingredients
-
2 strips uncured chicken bacon
-
2 medium sweet potatoes, cubed
-
1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
-
1 large jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
-
1 ½ tablespoons BBQ sauce
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 pinch ground dried chipotle pepper
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
-
Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle.
-
While the bacon cooks, put the cubed sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high power for 5 minutes.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil, then add sweet potatoes, garlic powder, chipotle powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook until potatoes are brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Add bacon, jalapeno, and BBQ sauce and cook over low heat, 2 to 3 minutes more.
Cook's Note:
If using regular potatoes--microwave for up to 8 minutes and use a cover on your skillet to ensure good browning and even cooking.
